[COLOR=#red]LOL!! There needs to be a new category of Stan...the "pure" "vanilla" "stock" android stans. Dudes caping for Vaniila like they getting paid by Google directly.
Let's call it for what it is, overated, over-hyped, and over stanned. When in reality it's a pretty decent alternative but that's it. Ok so it gets updates faster, definitely a strong point but not the end all be all that makes it superior.
Dudes have admitted in here that going Vanilla made them lose a few features that they appreciated on their skinned phones...and a lot of dudes constantly swith back and forth.
Then dudes talk so much crap about skinned phones yet buy them anyway. I'm still not convinced dudes made their own mind up about this. It's like once the tech blogs (not true tech journalism btw...just a bunch of extremely biased hipsters), started talking about pure vanilla then everybody started repeating their sentiments.
The reality is the Nexus line will never be truly dominant in the Android world, even if it's distribution wasn't limited...and that's because they are not superior devices. You'll always be left wanting more...and that's why dudes stay switching from them.
anyone knows this tho. they don't even market the nexus line. samsung is the number one android phone and the market as such. my last 4 android phones are stock android, thats how i've rolled, and personally i've been consistent about my feels.
at the end of the day, some like skinned, some like stock, w.e. all will get the job done as u always say, but for me skinned holds it back. not enough people care enough for sammy to really overhaul it so it is what it is.
note 4 is a great phone, and the battery life is amazing. i think i can enjoy my phone more with 5.1.1 rom tho.
note 4 speakerphone sucks tho, for whatever reason its hard for people to hear me.
